Finding a better option than bigger roads. "Many civic leaders appear unable to imagine growth without increasing car dependence....Winnipeg already has more kilometres of roadway per resident than many comparable cities in Canada, and far more than we can afford to maintain." t.ly/FdA7d
Opinion: Finding a better option than bigger roads
When facing complex problems, governments often reach for the simplest and most familiar solutions. In Winnipeg, that tendency shows up in how we plan for growth of our transportation network.

Fun fact: Halifax is not allowed to set a speed limit below 50 km/h without permission from the province.

And the province only considers reductions to 40, not to 30, in most cases.

And the criteria includes a study of whether drivers are already driving close to 40 km/h!

I mean, look, I'm not a reporter, so who am I to talk?

But on a day where the president both just called a woman reporter "Piggy" and is celebrating someone who had people bone saw apart one of my colleagues, I might just be a little ready to defend my colleagues and profession.

But that's just me

Hey Megyn Kelly,

14-year-old Eloise would like a word:

“If my voice makes you uncomfortable, good…
because the minute adults start defending predators by defending the age of a child, you’re not protecting the truth, you’re protecting the predator.”

Sound up! 🔥🔊

Bike lanes are crucial public infrastructure, not political props "Active transportation infrastructure isn’t about privileging one mode of transportation over another, it’s about sharing public space fairly and planning for a future where everyone has options." t.ly/nd0sa
Bike lanes are crucial public infrastructure, not political props
The question we should be asking isn’t whether we have too many bike lanes, but whether we can move beyond the false binary choice between 'drivers' and 'cyclists.'

not all men, but always men.
A man. A rant in 12 parts. This week has been rough. In less than 5 days, I’ve had three incidents involving men and I want to share them with you. 1/12 @ianmccausland.bsky.social

Yes. @emmaewood.bsky.social did a wildly brave thing in sticking her neck out for all of us, putting herself forward in this climate of vitriol and reaction, and proved that the good person *can* win, and commandingly so. It is worth it to run. (1/)
MY HOPE: that @emmaewood.bsky.social winning while running a positive campaign that had an actual platform gives hope to anyone, but particularly any WOMAN thinking of running next year in #winnipeg

There are a lot of women in this city doing the crucial work of building and holding together community, who people go to when they have a problem, who get people together to fix it, but who aren’t the loud guy taking up all the space or bossing people. If that’s you, we need you at city hall. (4/)

One of the best ways to reach our community has been @ianmccausland.bsky.social idea to bring Coffee Outside to Winnipeg. This past Friday we had the last one of the year and celebrated by handing out over 60 breakfast sandwiches! Thank you to Harrison’s Coffee and to our volunteers.

it has been a year and as far as I can tell we are no further understanding this tragedy. But we just had the same thing happen else where #winnipeg.
